Abstract

Deletion of both REV-ERBα and REV-ERBβ in mice reveals their significant role in regulating circadian rhythms.

  • REV-ERB nuclear receptors are essential for maintaining the core mammalian molecular clock.
  • These receptors are linked to the regulation of metabolism and physiological processes.
  • Specific functions of REV-ERBs were identified in various tissues through tissue-specific deletion.
  • REV-ERBs help maintain normal physiological functions and may protect against metabolic dysfunction.
